#Portfolio

This is an assignment to introduce one of the core practices in design: exploring the existing design space, critically examining examples, and taking what’s good and making something better or new.

To get you started your goal here is to explore the design space of portfolios, in particular web portfolios, as preparation for your first web assignment which is to build your own portfolio.

You need to:

1. Read the following

   • Personality in Design
   • Steal Like and Artist
   • Minimum Viable Personality

2. Find 10 Portfolios that are based on at least 5 of the 10 generic layouts identified here and which span the portfolio design space in an interesting way.

3. For each site you need to create a table in which you characterize key portfolio attributes such as

   • Brand:
   • Functionality:
   • Interactivity:
   • Navigation:

   Please Include the Site Name, Site URL and Date Looked At

4. This is your first opportunity to familiarize yourself with our method for handing in assignments assignments.

Fork this project, and push your work back up (Obviously add more later)

If you have trouble now is the time to ask the TAs
